Merchant Custom Data
Merchants can include custom transaction data for reporting and analysis that cannot be passed using other available data fields. Custom data fields are returned in the response.
Supported for following methods:
Integration methods | Payment methods | Transactions |
---|---|---|
All | All | All, except retrieval transactions |
To view the API request example with merchant custom data, download the Postman collection.
To process the transaction, your payment service provider or the acquirer does not need merchant custom data.
You can create fields and values for the merchant customer data, and then submit it in the order.custom
object. For example, to define the sales region related to the order, create a salesRegion
field and use it as order.custom.salesRegion
.
The submitted data is returned in the transaction response.
